TYPOGRAPHISAL MACHINE.

Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented July 21, 1914.

Application filed February 1, 1913. Serial No. 74.113109.

To all la/mm it may] concern lie it known that 1, DAVID S. KENNEDY, a citizen of the United States, residing at Brooklyn. in-the county of Kings and State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Typographical Machines, of which the following is a specification, reference being had therein to the accompanying drawing. a

My invention relates to typographical machines, such as linotype machines of the general organization represented in Letters Patent of the United States, No. 436,532, to O. Mergenthaler, wherein circulating matrices are released from a magazine in the order in which their characters are to appear in print and then assembled in line, the composed line transferred to the face of a mold, the mold filled with molten metal to form av slug or linotype against the matrices which produce the type characters thereon, and the matrices thereafter elevated and returned through a distributing mechastarted.

More particularly, .it relates to the use of a number of fonts or sets of matrices representing different sizes or styles of type, in such manner that any font may be brought into action at will; and to this end I preferably employ a series of superposed magazines in combination with means for shifting them and for bringing any selected one into operative position.

The particular construction of the parts will be described in the specification and finally claimed.

One of the principal advantages of my improved arrangement is its capability of adaptation to existing machines without material change therein.

In the accompanying drawings, I have shown my invention in preferred form and i way of example, and as applied to a iotype machine, but obviously many nanges and variations may be made jtherein, and in its mode of application, and still be comprised within its spirit.

Thus, the details thereof may be widely varied, and it may be applied to other forms of typographical machines, not only line cast ,iug machines which handle matrices, but

also type setting, type casting machines, etcu, which handle type or d es;

Generally speaking, I desire it to be understood that I do notdimit myself to any specific form or embodiment, except in so f r as such limitations are specified in the claims.

Referring to the drawings: Figure 1 is a side view of a portion of a linotype machine, having my invention applied thereto; Fig. 2 is a transverse vertical section taken substantially on the line 22 in Fig; 4; Fig. 3 is a similar section, showing; certain of the parts in diiferent osition; Fig.4 is a rear view, part1 bro en away, with the magazines removed detail, taken substantially on the line 5-5 in Fig. 1; Fig. 6 is a perspective view of the magazines, etc., detached; Fig. 7 is a detached perspective of the frame which supports the magazines, their base frames, etc.

Fig. 8 is an enlarged perspective, partly broken away, illustrating principally the devices for registering the escapement actuating means; Fig. 9 is an enlarged perspective, showing the operating means for shifting the magazines; and-Figs. l0 and 11 are sectional details thereof, illustrating the parts in different position.

The matrices X are stored according to font in the magazines A and B, which may be shifted so as to bring either into operative relation to the face plate C and distributing devices D, in the manner well understood in the art. In the preferred form illustrated, only two such magazines are disclosed, but obviously the number thereof may be increased if desired, as the principles of adjustment and operation apply similarly to'a greater number. The magazines A and B are respectively equipped with series or banks of escapements a, and Z1, and as each magazine is selected and moved into position, its escapements are thereby brought into proper relation to a single series or bank of escapement actuating levers C, which are operated by the reeds C from the keyboard mechanism C all in the usual manner.

The m..gazines A and B are mounted upon the customary base frames A and B which in turn are connected to the supporting frame E, and with reference to which they may be'shifted'to bring the selector magazine into operative position. The supporting frame E rests upon and is i in turn sustained by the framework of the .which is carried located, laterally-extending1 .4 and 7; By the several machine, so that, together with the parts carried thereby, it may be" removed and replaced at will, and so also that it may be moved relatively thereto to permit the free and unim eded removal of the magazines and their ase framestherefrom. This arrange'ment is of great importance; in that it not only facilitates the manipulation of the parts,.but, also allows my improvements to be applied'and adapted'to existing machines, with a minimum of alteration therein. 1 v

The frame E near its rear rests upon the transverse rod E and at its front upon two adjusting screws E,'the right hand one of which is connected to the ordinary arm or bracket E and the left hand one of by a supporting plate E suitably connected to the opposite side of the framework. The frame E is thus mounted. inclined os'ition and is prevented from sliding orwardiy by the en- ?gagement with the rod E of oppositely located adjustin screw E carried by rigid arms depending from the frame. The frame E is also provided with two oppositelyadjusting screws E, which abut. against e inner sides of the main framework, as best shown'in' Figs. devices" described, the frame may be adjusted to any desired and proper extent,

the vertical or tiltin E the "longitudina adjustment, the screws adjustment, and the screws E the lateral adjustment; and moreframe over, as theserespective screws are arranged in pairs, and at opposite sidesof the frame, the latter may be twisted or turned by their individual manipulation so as to secure in effect a universal adjustment,

As previously stated, the magazines A and B, and theirbase frames A and B may be shifted relatively to the supporting frame E so as to bring the selected magazine 'into I o erative position. The lower base is provided at opposite sides, and

' near the upper end thereof, with guiding to the frame E.

pieces F, which extend downwardly outside of and in close proximityto the sides ofthe frame E, so that when the frame B is shifted vertically with reference thereto, the sliding engagement of the pieces F serves to guide and hold the movedparts in accurate relationship thereto. Near its lower end,the frame B is provided at opposite sides with downwardly depending lugs or arms F located within and in close relationship to the frame E at their sides, and at their forward edges bearing against and resting upon the anti-friction rolls E connected The arms F thus serve a double function, by their lateral sliding engagement with the frame E, they act as 1-1 the upper at one end to the base frame B and the the screws E effectingvertical. .ides similar to the previously mention ides F, and by their engagement with t e rolls E they hold the frame B and the supported parts from forward or downward movement.

The magazine B rests upon the base frame B in the usual manner, and the up per base frame A in turn lies upon. the

magazine B, it being pivotally connected near its upper end, and at opposite sides thereof, to upward extensions of the guides F, as by the open slots F in such manner that it may be readily disengaged therefrom when desired. The magazine A rests upon and is carried by the base frame A In order to effect the vertical shifting of the magazines with reference to the supporting frame E, so that either one may be 4 brought into operative position, I provide means carried by said frame, which will now be described. Near the forward end of the frame E, and at opposite sides thereof, are located two elevating cams G upon a transverse rock shaft Gr suitably journaled in the frame. These cams are located in operative relation to the cam rolls B mounted at opposite sides upon the base frame B At the rear or upper portion of the supporting frame E, and at opposite sides thereof, are provided two pairs of toggle links H and members H being connected lower members H at one end to the suporting frame E. The respective upper and ower members H and H are intermediately connected to a common transverse rod H the lateral 'movement of which acts to straighten out the compound toggle system.

The rod ,H is connected by a pair of longitudinal links H to the cam mechanism at the front side 'of the frame E, either directly to eccentric stud on the cams G, as shown in Figs. 2 andB or to short arms 11* fixed to the rock shaft G as shown in Figs. 7 and 8. v I

It will be apparent that when the shaft G is rocked, the cams G and toggles'H, H will act to elevate the base frame 13 simultaneously and in parallelism. Moreover, when the parts are thus manipulated, as shown in Fig. 2, the elevated magazines will beheld. rigidly in position, at the rear end by the straightened toggle joints H, H, and at the fro t end by the rolls B resting upon the cams movement being-adequately resisted by the engagement of the depending arms F with the rolls E". This position is-further insured by the powerful springs I connecting the toggle rod H to a transverse bar at the forward end of the supporting frame E, the tendency of G; the tendency to forward these springs being to hold Moreover, the springs H also serve as a counterbalance to the weight fi fkt 1e magazines, etc., diminish the manual of oit resa quired to shift them, and act to render the shifting movements more certain and uniform.

Due to the construction and arrangement described, the selected magazine is held firmly inposition. In Fig. l, the upper magazine A is illustrated in operative relation to the assembling and distrbuting devices, at which time the superimposed magazines and base frames rest directly upon the supporting frame E. In Fig, 2, the lower magazine B is shown in operation, at which time the parts are securely held by the 7 cams, toggle joints, etc., in the manner previously indicated.

The means for rockin the shaft G comprise a hand lever J, t e details of which are illustrated in Figs. 9, 10 and 11. The arm or lever J is loosely mounted upon the rock shaft G, in immediate proximity to. the collar J fast thereon and. formed with a transverse recess or notch J", adapted to receive the longitudinally movable in J mounted in the arm J. The pin J 2 is provided with a spring. J which normally engages the pin in the recess, the sprin having only sufficient strength to insert t io pin partially therein, as shown in Fig. 10. The

arm J is ordinarily 1n ti )6 position indicated in Fig. 1, and who f it is desired to elevate the magazines, it isynoved forwardly through an angle of approximately 180. In order to lock the parts in this position, the frame E is provided with a plunger J normally urged outward by, the spring J so that the plunger enter the recess J when the latter registers theifewith and thus holds the collar J and rock shaft Gr against rotation. The spring J similarly has only sufficient strength to insert the plunger J partially in the recess J ,"as shown in Fig. 10, wherein both the pin J and plunger J 4 are illustrated as engaging the collar J When the magazines have been elevated in the manner described, if it be desired to ,shift the operating arm J backwardly out "of the Way, without rotating the rock shaft 50 the pin J is moved outward against the pressure of the spring J and entirely wit drawn from the recess J when the arm may be turned rearwardly to its original position, at which time the plunger J continues to engage the collar J and hold the rock shaft G against movement. However, if it be desired to turn the rock shaft G so as to lower the magazines, this is effected by the inward movement of the pin J (see Fig. 9) until the locking plunger J is' removed from the recess J when due to the connection of the arm J to the collar J, the

shaft G may be rocked rearwardly, as indicated in Fig. 11.

My improved construction also permits of G5 the ready removal of the magazines and their. interchange and substitution, as desired; FtS shown in Fig. 2, when the rock shaft G is-operated to elevate the magazines, this manipulation locates the magazine A in convenient position, so that it may he slid forwardly and detached from its base frame A over and Without interfference with the face plate C and other as isembling devices. To facilitate this sliding ;removal of the magazine A, the base frame @A is provided at opposite sides with the 3 forwardly-projecting hooks K to engage the ;transverse bars of the magazine and permit its tiltin thereon. These hooks K arcfpivoted to t e sides of the base frame A at K 0 and are formed with notches or cuts K ;which in operative position are firmly en- Zgaged by the laterally projecting pins K |on the base frame A. In normal condi- ,tions, the hooks K are turned about the .pivots K inwardly and out of the way, as

shown in Fig. 1.

\Vhen the parts are in, the position shown in Fig. 2, the magazine B may not be conveniently removed, because of its relation to the face plate C. To secure this result, it is therefore necessary to raise the parts to a still higher level, and this is accomplished by the supplementary elevation or tilting of the supporting frame E about the transverse rod E as shown in Fig. 3, the parts being held firmly in these relations by the pivoted arm L which may be turned to engage under the rock shaft G Assuming that the magazine A has been already removed in the manner indicated in Fig. 2, its base frame A may next be detached simply by disengaging it from its pivotal connection at F to the guides F, when the magazine B is free to be 10a slid forwardly in the manner indicated in Fig. 3.

Other constructive features of advantage are also provided for in my improved arrangement. Thus, in order to permit the no outward swinging of the external member or Wall of the face plate C, as indicated by dotted lines in Fig. 1., it is provided with pivoted guide rods 0* which project through eyes or openings C connected to the main 1'15 frame, the angular relation of the rods to the eyes being such that when the member is moved upwardly, they engage or bind so as to hold the member securely and give access to the channels, etc., of the face plate. 20

The matrices pass from the distributing mechanism to the magazine in position through the customary channel entrance, which entrance or its supp rting bracltet D is pivotally connected to the supporting 25 frame it as at D". The entrance. consequently always retains its proper position relatively to the di tributing mechanism magazine in operation, as best shown in Fig. 8. These aneans comprise the depending bracket N carrying the grid N to guide -the upper ends of the reeds C and the transverse bar N to-support the actuating levers C in operative relation thereto. The bracket N is preferably suspended front. the transverse rod N mounted at its left hand end in the bearing member P in the stationary framework and at its right hand end projecting through a recess 0 in the stationary framework, and provided with a cap piece 0 secured to the framework by screws 0 passing through recesses 0 therein and into the framework; It will be observed that the recess in the framework, and the recesses O in the cap 0, are all of them enlarged to a considerable extent, so as to permit a suflicient capability of adjustment for the supporting rod N. ()bvious ly, if a greater range of adju tment for the rod N is desired or required, it may be secured by providing hothends of the rod with devices like those already described as connected to the right hand end. Similarly the bracket N is provided with adjusting screws N and N bearing against the framework at opposite sides of the rod N whereby its angular position relatively thereto may be regulated. .In this way, I am enabled to adjust the reeds and the actuating levers in exact relations to each other and to the escapements, and also I avoid the necessity for extensive fitting, which is usually necessary, as these parts may be applied. to existing forms of machines.

As previously stated I have shown my improvemcnts only in preferred form and by way of example, and as applied to a linetype machine, but obviously many changes and modifications therein, and in their mcde of application, will suggest themselves to thcse skilled in the art without departure from their scope. 1
